Told You They Were Watching Me

22 May
Spy vs Spy

I rescued this from my spam box. 

I think the government hid it there.

I added your blog to bookmarks. And i’ll read your articles more often! Before this, it would be possible for the government to arrest you just based on whatever you were saying, if they didn’t like it.You got fantastic nice ideas there. I made a research on the topic and got most peoples will agree with your blog.

I know it’s not spam because of the truth of the last line.  This guy must have superpowers, to be able to keep me from jail just by bookmarking my blog.  Wonder if he works for Twitter?*

Wonder if they’ll take a bag of old clothes for him?

I thought I’d share some email subject lines as well.

I’m thinking of changing my blog name to Whistling Housewife.  I can’t whistle but that’s okay, I’m as suited to this job as I am to those two.

    Your blogosphere gets weirder and weirder. If I were you, I’d keep away from those facebook and twitter places – they can waste an awful lot of time.

      I only FB once or twice a week, and rarely Twitter (I was on it yesterday because I finally succumbed to curiosity about a certain footballer. I was shocked. Shocked, I tell you). I use them to spread the Tilly Bud word and generate more readers.

      The cake I will definitely need; the file, not so much. 🙂

      Don’t take it personally – the more you get, the more successful your blog. I hope.

    People say the funniest things. Thanks for sharing.

    After sharing some of the high quality SPAM I’d been receiving on SLTW . . . it stopped. Dried up. Disappeared.

    Now . . . I receive SPAM in languages I don’t even recognize.

        I never liked it. Corned beef from Uruguay was better – until they started putting Typhoid (or something) in it. The good folk of Aberdeen were freaked out by it – so maybe Spam is more healthy. . .

    there are governments who arrest (and kmill) for things they don’t understand but take to be an affront to themselves.
